Season's Greetings Slimline Card - Christmas to Remember Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog! Today I am sharing another card idea using the Christmas to Remember and Christmas Season Stamp Sets. Today's card is a slimline card design using a fun technique.

First I created the background for the card. It's a take on the Polished Stone Technique, but I used my Soft Succulent Stampin' Blends and some rubbing alcohol to create the background on a piece of Vellum Cardstock.

Once I had the start of the background done and it had dried I came back in with my Fine Tip Glue Pen and added some fine lines of adhesive where I wanted and along some of the circles that the splattered rubbing alcohol had created. After that had dried to a tacky state I dropped the Vellum Cardstock layer into my container of Gilded Leafing Embellishments and added some gold to it. Next you are going to rub off any excess leafing and attach to a panel of Basic White Cardstock cut the same size as the Vellum Cardstock.

After I had the polished stone piece attached I then layered that onto a piece of Rich Razzleberry Cardstock cut just slightly larger than my panel. And then I added it to my Slimline card base cut from a piece of Soft Succulent Cardstock.

To finish off today's card I added a sentiment stamped in Rich Razzleberry Classic Ink onto a piece of Basic White Cardstock and popped it up in the center on some Stampin' Dimensionals. Then I added some holly leaves, other leaves and berries stamped with the Christmas Seasons Stamp Set and popped on a few Champagne Rhinestones for the finishing touch.
